  • Preheat the oven to 180ºC.
  • Beat the butter with the sugar until creamy.
  • Add the eggs one by one, beating very well after each addition.
  • Then sift the flour along with the cornstarch and add it to the mixture.
  • Make a puree with the bananas and add to the mixture along with the cinnamon and vanilla.
  • Place the cupcake liners in the tray and fill them with the mixture just a little over halfway.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, or simply insert a toothpick and if it comes out clean, it’s ready.
  • Let them cool while we make the meringue.
  • In a small pot, combine the cup of sugar and water, bring to heat until it forms a medium or soft ball syrup.
  • While the syrup is cooking, place the egg whites in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  • When the syrup reaches the right point, pour it into the bowl with the beaten egg whites in a slow, steady stream, but without stopping to beat at any moment.
  • With a pastry bag, decorate the mini-cupcakes as you wish.
